F.ÍLAWRENCE DEPARTMENT OF ENTOMOLOGY, CSIRO CANBERRA, AUSTRALIA UNITED STATES AGRICULTURE PREPARED BY DEPARTMENT OF HANDBOOK AGRICULTURAL V AGRICULTURE NUMBER 529-105 RESEARCH SERVICE May 1982 FOREWORD Many species of beetles are important pests of agricultural crops, stored food products, forests, wood products and structures, and fabrics. Many other species, in contrast, are beneficial in the biological sup- pression of pest arthropods and weeds, as well as in the decomposition of plant detritus, animal carcasses, and dung. Part of our national responsibility to American agriculture is to provide correct identification of species of American beetles so that appropriate controls can be applied. Most information about animal species, whether agricultural, biological, or experimental, is filed under the species' scientific names. These names are therefore the keys to retrieval of such information. Because some species have been known by several names, a complete listing of these names for each species is neces- sary. For the user of scientific names, an up-to-date taxonomic catalog providing currently accepted names and pertinent bibliographic and distributional data is an indispensable tool. Although taxonomic literature is constantly changing to reflect current work, the traditional published taxonomic catalog remains static with updating left to the individual user until it is revised. Production of catalogs in the past has been laborious with long printing delays resulting in data that are obsolete before being published. However, the computer now provides the capability of storing, updating, and retrieving taxonomic data; rapid publica- tion through computer-driven typesetting machinery; and a greater degree of currentness and flexibility. All 124 fascicles in this catalog of the beetles of America north of Mexico are produced by an original group of computer programs, designed and written during a pilot project by personnel of the Systematic Entomology Laboratory, Agricultural Research Service, and the Communications and Data Services Divi- sion, Science and Education Management Staff. The published information is stored on computer tape, is updated periodically to reflect taxonomic progress in the family, and is available in a data base for computer searching. T. B. Kinney, Jr. ^ Administrator Agricultural Research Service PREFACE The Coleóptera, or beetles, are represented in the world by about 220,000 described species, of which about 24,000 occur in ithe United States and Canada. A comprehensive taxonomic catalog of beetles for this area has not been available except the series of world-based "Coleopterorum Catalogus" volumes (1909-present, Junk, Berlin). The Leng "Catalogue of the Coleóptera of America North of Mexico" (J. D. Sherman, Jr., Mt. Vemon, NY), which was published in 1920 with supplements to the end of 1947, is a checklist. However, it has served professional and amateur alike for nearly 60 years as the principal source of scientific names of beetles. Since 1947, many new taxa have been described and many changes in status and nomenclature have appeared in numerous scattered publications, but little effort has been made to summarize these changes. This catalog will supplant the Leng catalog and supply additional essential information. It is produced by an original suite of storage, retrieval, and printing programs written especially for automated taxonomic catalogs. The catalog for each family is published as a separate fascicle with its introductory text, bibliography, and index. Each family is numbered as listed, but the order of issuance of fascicles is not necessarily in numerical sequence. The publishing of separate fascicles makes data available shortly after they are assembled. Computer tapes for each fascicle are maintained for updating and necessary reprinting. The information on each family is the responsibility of the respective author or authors. The editors modify it only to correct obvious errors and to make it conform to the requirements of the computer programs. No original proposal for a new name, taxon, status, or classification is given, such data having been previously published, but new host and distributional data are often listed. The rules of "The International Code of Zoological Nomenclature" are followed. The geographic scope of this catalog includes the continental United States, Canada, Alaska, Greenland, and the associated continental islands. Names of taxa found only in other regions are excluded. If the range of a species extends outside these geographic limits, this fact is indicated. Inside the back cover is a map of the 12 faunal regions based on historical and faunal criteria to simplify distribution recordings. Two-letter Postal Service style abbreviations are used for States and Provinces, and faunal regions are indicated in each distribution record by a diagonal line between groups of abbreviations. It is not the purpose of this catalog to present a complete scheme of higher classification within the order. The familial makeup is somewhat intermediate between that of R. H. Arnett in "The Beetles of the United States" (1960-62, Catholic University Press, Washington, DC) and that of R. A. Crowson in "The Natural Classification of the Families of Coleóptera" (1967, Biddies Ltd., Guildford, England). Modifications of these two systems are largely those advocated by J. F. Lawrence based in part on suggestions by taxonomic specialists for certain families. Generic groups and higher categories within the family are arranged phylogenetically as indicated by the author of the particular fascicle, and species group names with their respective synonyms are arranged alphabetically. Names referable to incertae sedis and nomen dubium are listed separately at the end of the nearest applicable taxon with notations as to their status. Each available name is followed by its author, date proposed, and page number referring to the complete bibliographic citation containing the original description. Following each generic name are VII the type-species and method of its designation, necessary explanatory notes, and pertinent references on immature stages, taxonomy, redescription, ecology, and keys. After the specific name entry are the original genus (if different from the present placement), type-locality, geographical distribution by State, Province, and broad extralimital units, explanatory notes, pertinent references to immature stages, taxonomy, redescription, and ecology, depository of type-specimen and its sex, and hosts. In addition to the list under the map of faunal regions (inside back cover), the following abbrevia- tions are used in this catalog: ABBREVIATIONS, GENERAL Amer. Bor.—America Borealis Mus.—Museum Amer. Sept.—America Septentrionalis N. Amer.—North America Autom.—Automatic Orig. des.—Original designation C. Amer.—Central America Preocc.—Preoccupied Co.—County S. Amer.—South America Cosmop.—Cosmopolitan Sp.—Species

Amini, S., Krolik, R., Nozari, J., Ebrahim Farashiani, M., Kazerani, F. — Ciidae are a small family of mycetophagous beetles with only fifteen species so far recorded in Iran. The occurrence of nine of them has now been confirmed. Additional 8 species belonging to 5 genera collected during the 2014– 2017 survey in the Hyrcanian Forest, North Iran, are recorded for the first time in Iran. Four species are excluded form the Iranian fauna. As a result of this study, the number of species known from Iran has increased to 19. Key words: Ciid beetles, new records, fauna, forest, fungi, Iran, Middle East. Introduction Ciidae Leach, 1819 is a cosmopolitan family of minute tree-fungus beetles comprising more than 700 described species in 51 genera worldwide (Lawrence, 2016, 2019; Souza-Gonçalves et al., 2018). There have been only limited taxonomic studies of this family with only fifteen species so far recorded from Iran (Jelínek, 2008; Amini et al., 2014; Królik, 2016; Lopes-Andrade et al., 2016, Samin et al., 2018 a, b).

Department The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada DE-6 (2/88) Abstract Increasing forest management resulting from bark beetle attack in British Columbia's forests has created a need to assess the impact of single species management on local insect biodiversity. In the Fort St James Forest District, in central British Columbia, Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii Franco) (Fd) grows at the northern limit of its North American range. At the district level the species is rare (representing 1% of timber stands), and in the early 1990's growing populations of the Douglas-fir beetle (Dendroctonus pseudotsuage Hopkins) threatened the loss of all mature Douglas-fir habitat in the district.

  • Insect Fauna Compared Between Six Polypore Species in a Southern Norwegian Spruce Forest

Insect fauna compared between six polypore species in a southern Norwegian spruce forest. - Fauna norv. Ser. B 42: 21-26. Beetles and gall midges were reared from dead fruiting bodies of the polypore species Phellinus tremulae, Piptoporus betulinus, Fomitopsis pinicola, Pycnoporus cinnabari­ nus, Fomes fomentarius and Inonotus radiatus. The number of species differed signifi­ cantly among the polypore species. The variation in species richness conformed well with the hypothesis that more insect species may utilize a fungi species with (1) increasing durational stability, and (2) increasing softness of the carpophores. Strong preferance for certain polypore species was indicated for most of the Cisidae species, and a few species in the other families of beetles and gall midges (Diptera). The host preferances of the Cisidae species were in good agreement with records from other parts of Scandinavia. The host records in two of the gall midge species are new. Many of the species were too low-frequent for an evaluation of host preferances. Bjf/Jrn 0kland, Norwegian Forest Research Institute, Hf/Jgskolevn. 12, 1432 As, Norway.

T. SMITH Canadian Museum of Nature, P.O. Box 3443, Station D, Ottawa, ON, K1P 6P4, Canada; [email protected] INTRODUCTION The following is a checklist of all Melolonthinae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) found in the New World. It has been modified from Evans (2003), Evans and Smith (2005), and Smith and Evans (2005) and has been updated to 13 March 2009. Included in this checklist are all of the available names given for New World Melolonthinae (both valid and invalid). Tribes are listed in traditional order (pseudo-phylogenetically) with genera, species, and subspecies listed alphabetically within. Under each valid generic name the subgenera and synonymies are listed as are type species and, in some cases, citations for keys, checklists, and bibliographies. Listed under each valid species are synonymies, distributional data by country, and citations for new combinations and spellings. A complete bibliography is included in the “References” section of all papers mentioned in the checklist. The purpose of this checklist is to present accurate and complete information for all the names of Melolonthinae in the New World. The taxonomy herein is based on the current literature (even if we have unpublished data contradicting what has been published) and the nomenclature carefully follows the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature.

  • An Electronic Checklist of the New World Chafers (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Melolonthinae)
    AN ELECTRONIC CHECKLIST OF THE NEW WORLD CHAFERS (COLEOPTERA: SCARABAEIDAE: MELOLONTHINAE) ARTHUR V. EVANS Research Associate, Department of Entomology, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC; Department of Recent Invertebrates, Virginia Museum of Natural History, Martinsville, VA; c/o1600 Nottoway Ave., Richmond, VA 23227, USA; [email protected]. and ANDREW B. T. SMITH Canadian Museum of Nature, P.O. Box 3443, Station D, Ottawa, ON, K1P 6P4, Canada; asmith@mus- nature.ca INTRODUCTION The following is a checklist of all Melolonthinae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) found in the New World. It has been modified from Evans (2003) and Smith and Evans (2005) and has been updated to 1 September 2005. Included in this checklist are all of the available names given for New World Melolonthinae (both valid and invalid). Tribes are listed in traditional order (pseudo-phylogenetically) with genera, species, and subspecies listed alphabetically within. Under each valid generic name the subgenera and synonymies are listed as are type species and, in some cases, citations for keys, checklists, and bibliographies. Listed under each valid species are synonymies, distributional data by country, and citations for new combinations and spellings. A complete bibliography is included in the “References” section of all papers mentioned in the checklist. The purpose of this checklist is to present accurate and complete information for all the names of Melolonthinae in the New World. The taxonomy herein is based on the current literature (even if we have unpublished data contradicting what has been published) and the nomenclature carefully follows the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. It is our intent to update this checklist periodically as errors are corrected and new papers are published requiring changes.
